Beware! This is a Spoiler Callis Rose was a great book that made my emotions rawr, And the voice actor Sean Runnette made it just that much better.. In a way Callis Rose reminded me of Carrie, I half expected the popular girls to poor Pigs Blood on the poor girl, but no they had to take it one step further.. At the beginning I had a few pet peeves about how the seven year old acted very unlike her age, but as the story progressed it just got better..In the end this book got me thinking, Because I saw myself a lot like Callis Rose If some girl and her friends aided in paralyzing the one I loved, and killed my Mother, I would go out of my way to destroy them even if it where to be my end.. This is a great book, that I recommended you all to read!! (Warning.. Read when alone, cause screaming at stupid jerks will be involved) Reminiscent of 'Carrie', though not at all the same story. I'd have to say I did like it overall, but it didn't flow as well for me as some of the author's other works. I'm not quite sure why, but I found the storytelling often a bit plodding - perhaps because it didn't have as much of the leavening, sarcastic humour Tufo usually injects into his stories. About halfway through I found myself becoming a little irritated with Callis and wanting her (and the story) to just 'move on already'. There were a lot of interesting characters we spent a little bit of time with, but they weren't really fulfilled - it felt rather 'Callis heavy'. Two and a half stars from me.
